for Migraine
A B vitamin taken in high doses daily to reduce migraine frequency over time. The dose used in clinical trials is 400mg per day, much higher than what is in a standard multivitamin. It tends to take 2-3 months before a noticeable reduction in headache days.
How it works
Riboflavin supports mitochondrial energy metabolism. Migraineurs show evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction that high-dose riboflavin may correct.
What to watch for
Turns urine bright yellow — expected and harmless. Available OTC. Very safe at this dose. A preventive treatment, not for acute attacks.
